All the heads and dampers have been replaced by epson and I get the problem
with new carts or old.  I've given up on trying to eliminate the
banding...hiding it turned out to be easy with IJC.  I mentioned this
because I think it demonstrates the importance of such a piece of
software...it opens up a whole new set of possibilities for trouble
shooting.  Many people have been struggling with posteriztion from MIS inks
lately because densities were slightly off...this is an easy tweak in IJC.
